The intouchables is inspired by a true story where two men from contrasting backgrounds come together to form an unlikely friendship. This movie shows that growth of the human soul is limitless regardless of circumstances. The movie progresses through steps of acceptance, understanding, through to friendship and love. Their time together leads to the discovery of quality of life for both of their lives.

What we like

To reflect on
- Antoine: These street guys have no pity.
Philippe: That’s what I want…no pity.
